WHEN LOVE BATTLES WITH DEATH [#Missiondesi]

#23 ADRIAN & JOAN- THE RENEWED LOVE

Adrian felt butterflies in his stomach when his legs climbed on the stairs to reach Joan.

The maid asked him to sit on a chair and she went inside to bring Joan.

Adrian waited for Joan and he forgot to breath when Joan appeared in front of him in a white silk clothing.

Joan sat on a chair and her lips kept on smiling and the maid left the room.

Joan, "Goood evening teacher."

Adrian stuttered, "Good How about you?"

Joan replied," I'm fine Teacher."

Words shuffled in the mind of Adrian who has been suffering to select words to continue the conversation.

He noticed a confused expression on the face of Joan who has been waiting for a question from her teacher.

At once Adrian noticed a flute on a table beside her.

Adrian asked, "Do you know to play flute?"

Joan replied, "Yes teacher for the past 7 years I have been learning flute. My flute teacher told that I had finished learning everything regarding flute and he asked my father to let me learn vocals as well as Piano."

When she started to speak Adrian began to lose himself since her speech entered his ears as a melodious song. And some how he managed to get the matter which she has been saying to him.

Adrian kept on looking at those eyes which seemed to be staring at him like the radiant stars of the sky .

Adrian," so you have a great interest towards music."

Joan smiled (it just took away his heart without any pain), "Yes teacher, When I was young, My mother taught me some hymns and I used to sing with her at home. I became alone after losing my mother when I was 10 years old that Hymns made me to feel that my mother was with me always . (Adrian noticed the sadness which has been entering her eyes). Then my father accepted my wish to learn a music instrument and he arranged a teacher to teach me flute. Teacher I wish to get better in vocals even though girls were not allowed to sing at church (at 17th century girls were not allowed to sing in church) I wished to sing at home. I wanted to become a composer."

Adrian was dumbstruck on hearing a burning ambition in the heart of that beautiful girl.

Adrian felt that the ambition of Joan was his Ambition, and he replied,"Good. I will help you to achieve your dream."

At the very instant of hearing those words of encouragement from Adrian Joan smiled in joy and thanked him.

Adrian felt that he was in the top of the world on seeing such a happy expression on the face of his beautiful Joan.

Adrian asked, "Shall we start our practice?"

Joan nodded saying "yes" and she stood up and she stepped towards the piano by sensing the things around her with the touch of her hands.

Adrian kept on seeing her activity and also it was the very first time for him to see her walking like an angelic baby who trying to walk with the support of things around.

He noticed her hands caressing the piano. Finally Joan found her piano bench. As it was a two seater bench she sat at one end of the bench.

Adrian went near her and he sat next to her.

Adrian had a close look at Joan for the first time her expressive eyes and mesmerizing smile made him to feel his heart which is jumping with joy and it seemed that it was a moment which he have been waiting for years.
